This rum is made from 100% fresh pressed sugarcane juice, estate grown in the shadow of Volcán de Tequila in Jalisco. With wood fermentation, copper pot distillation, and passionate hands, Pelacañas is intensely fresh, bold, and balanced. It is bound to intrigue.
Llamarada is the name of a beautiful flower that grows at the Hacienda, but it also translates to fire burst or inferno. Despite it’s name, this still strength expression is an impressively delightful sipper.
Llamarada will also bring an intense tropical fruit and sugarcane presence to your cocktails. If big, fresh and forward is what you’re after, Llamarada will deliver!
